Indesign created web ads with hyperlinks...

I am trying to create a simple 120x100 web ad where the client has their web sight hyperlinked as well as having an image that can be clicked on and the viewer can watch a youtube video of the product...
Is this feasable iwith Indesign CC. ...so far all roads lead to my being able to execute these ads within Indesign and I think am almost there, BUT I cannot figure out which is the best file to SAVE/EXPORT the file as; gif? jpeg? png?...AND I am not 100% sure I am following the right sequence of paths to creating the proper embedding of the video. In the Indesign preview it works...but sometimes my client can't get the ad to execute the video...Sorry for my ignorance but I am self taught and slowly getting adjusted to web/ad design
I have the basic idea but i have questions, so many questions...
I need to do a quick step by step with someone who can see my process and steer me in the right direction.
Someof my questions are as follows:
1. What ultimately is the right file to save an interactive INdesign created web ad...GIF or a JPEG?
2. Is Photoshop a better application to embed video and create hyperlinks with an ad? In my opinion creating hyperlinks with the "slicing" method  seems archaic and the pixelated type is awful and useless...Illustrator doesn't play nice yet either...
A Client also wants a active video in her ad...I know I create this constant looping video within an ad in Indesign, but what file format do I save it as?
I have not explored the other applications for creating a web ads because I am hoping I can just stick with my Indesign which I LOVE.
Thanks for any help, advice or direction...

Hi Bob...thanks for your reply....can't figure out why indesign would bother offering the bells and whistles to create interactive web files if in fact it is not the right app for that...I have Muse....I thought it was just for web construction and design...
so I can use Muse to create simple banner and web ads with the hyperlinks and embedded video I mentioned earlier?
Thanks...as usual

  • How to create Webi Reports with SAP BW Objects

    Hi,
    I have no knowledge on creating webi reports with SAP BW Objects like (InfoCube, DSO, MultiProvider, Infoview, MasterData Infoobject).
    As per my understanding Webi reports can be developed with universe which is created on BEx Queries or OLAP BAPI interface, unfortunately i don't have BEx App installed. So, i have to create OLAP universe in this case.
    Here my question is can we create universe with all the available BW objects like InfoCube, DSO, MultiProvider, Infoview, MasterData Infoobject.
    Please, Can anyone suggest a solution
    Thanks,
    Siva
    Edited by: siva@chinni on Apr 25, 2010 4:45 PM

    Hi,
    Yes we can create WebI on the top of SAP Objects - InfoCube, DSO, Characteristics etc...
    But we have to keep in mind that for WebI we must create Universe.
    When we create universe we make direct connection with SAP Objects but we get less functionality - such Calculated Key Figures, Restricted Key Figures, formulas etc. Now you have to achieve all these missing components at Universe Level and at WebI level.
    If you are creating your universe on the top of DSO and InfoObject then make sure they set for reporting.
    There are some online documentation which tells that what functionality you can achieve.
    Check the following document to have a bird's eye view.

  • Creating a document with hyperlinks to a glossary

    I am creating a document with hyperlinks to a glossary. How can I permit my reader to return to the page that the hyperlink originated on? Thanks!

    The last time I did this I put each glossary term on its own (much smaller) page, then created a link to return to previous view that covered the entire page so no matter where they clicked they would go back to where they came from. Or you could create a button that jumps to previous view. Of course this only works when each glossary term is linked just once. If the same term is used on different pages you link them all to the glossary but the link on the glossary page will only return to the first instance.

  • Unable to create web app with PowerShell - An update conflict has occurred

    I am trying to create a new Web Application using PowerShell. I need to use PowerShell because I need to create the Web App using classic authentication and not Claims authentication. the first time I created the Web App, everything went great. Ever since
    the first time, I get an error and the web app creation does not complete. Just as an FYI, I can create a new Web App using Central Admin, but that creates it with Claims authentication which I cannot use.
    Here is my PowerShell script
    New-SPWebApplication -Name "SharePoint2013 (82)" -ApplicationPool "SharePoint2013-82" -AuthenticationMethod "NTLM" -ApplicationPoolAccount (Get-SPManagedAccount "GLOBAL\SP_AppPool") -Port 82 -URL "http://sharepoint2013"

    I have tried to resolve the issue by performing the following:

    Use Products Configuration Wizard (no detach, just 'upgrade') - People have said to select the option to disconnect the server from server farm and revert back again at next step (so you actually do not disconnect), but there is no next step that I have
    encountered. You select 'disconnect', hit next, and the server disconnects.
    Restart all the servers in the farm
    Run the PowerShell script again...still get the same error
    I have tried it on multiple servers in the farm too.

  • How to create web services with complex objects as parameters

    Hi,
    Not sure if this is the right place, but...
    I'm using Netbeans 5.5 and trying to learn web services.
    Creating a simple web service with simple parameters like strings and integers is nice and easy. I'm now trying to take the next step, and create a web service with a more complex schema as a parameter.
    I've tried two approaches, and hit dead ends on both:
    (1) Define my complex schema as an xsd file, and then create a WSDL file. Creating the schema and saving it in my EFB project works fine; when I try to create a new WSDL file, the IDE gives me a button to import external schemas - which is where the problem is: the Browse simply won't find my newly created schema file.
    (2) Define a Java class (in this case, it's a fairly simple example containing a single ArrayList), and then use the IDE to generate a web service from Java. The IDE does this fine, but I now have no idea how to consume or test the web service - I don't know where to look for the WSDL that has presumably been generated, and I'm also a bit iffy over what answers to give the WSDL creator about port names etc.
    Ideally, I'd prefer to get approach 1 to work - can someone point me in the direction of a sensible tutorial for these things?
    (Happy to carry on using Netbeans 5.5 or to revert to Sun Studio Enterprise, which I was playing with before.)
    All help appreciated, Thanks

  • How to create web applications with the LabVIEW web server

    Wonderful Forum,
    I've noticed that sometimes it can be tricky for LabVIEW users to learn how to create their own custom web clients using the LabVIEW web server. I created a LabVIEW web development community group and wrote some tutorials to teach the basics of creating web clients using HTML, Javascript, and AJAX. The idea is that LabVIEW users without any web background can quickly look at some tutorials and examples to get started on their own projects.

    Hi Joey,
    A great idea! I recently presented at a local user group meeting about my WebSockets API (see the links in my signature). I've uploaded the presentation and the demo code I gave to our UG here.
    I think the barrier to entry is with needing to know the web languages (e.g. html/css/js) as well as writing your LabVIEW code. I have joined the group and look forward to seeing some interesting content on there! Certainly some demos of using AJAX to make requests to Web Services and do something with the data (e.g. display on a graph) would be a good place to start.

  • Creating Web Galleries with LR

    A few questions...
    LR writes the images to /bin....where is this? I want to check the size of the files it is writing.
    Also, is there a way to create a gallery with multiple galleries, or does each gallery have to be created on its own?
    Can the templates be edited, for instance can the back/index/next positions be altered?
    Finally,can the galleries once created be incorporated into a web site? I think the method is frames or i frames?
    A newbie, sp please be gentle :-)
    Phil

    You can check the file sizes when you export. Prior to that, the files are written to a temporary directory. Where that is located is anybody's guess.
    The reason there are three different sizes written on export is that the Flash gallery will compare the screen size of the person viewing the gallery to the files and will load those files which are most appropriate for the user's screen.
    If you want the files to be smaller, you can adjust the quality of the JPGs in the panels to the right side of the interface. By moving the image quality down to 80 or 75 percent, you'll find a significant difference in the size of the exported gallery, with very little perceivable drop in image quality on screen.
    So far as I've found, you cannot modify the template files that ship with Lightroom, though you can certainly create your own custom galleries. I've done just that, and released it publicly only three hours ago:
    http://theturninggate.com/blog/adobe-lightroom-slimbox-template
    If you're interested in making templates of your own, http://www.lightroomgalleries.com is a good place to get started.
    As for integrating Lightroom galleries into existing websites, you need to use frames or iframes with the Flash galleries. With the HTML galleries, you'd probably do best simply to use your site as an index linking out to the gallery.
    Using my slimbox template, however, it should be much simpler. I haven't actually tested it yet, but it's something that was high on my priority list in making the template.
    Theoretically, you should be able to copy the full contents of the "lightboxgallery" DIV and paste them into any page. Do a batch Find & Replace to set the correct path to the images and thumbnails wherever you choose to put them, then be sure to include the Javascript and Stylesheet in the head of the path (also with correct path). There's no reason I can see that the code can't run from any page on any site so long as the connections are in place. And because the gallery runs from a single HTML file, it's dead simple to sort it all out.
    I hope that answers all the questions.

  • How to connect Already created WebI reports with Xcelsius Dashboards

    HI Experts,
    My requirement it to bring data from already in use WebI reports to a consolidated Dashboard. I am aware of connecting universe with Dashboard with the help of QaaWS.
    Is there is any other way that we can connect our dashboard?
    We are thinking to publish those dashboards on the SAP Enterprise BI Portal.
    Thanks in advance!!!
    Edited by: BIBO_Apprentice on Aug 13, 2011 7:40 AM

    Hi,
    One can connect WebI reports with Xcelsius dashboards in 3 ways:
    1. Using QaaWS : connects universe with Dashboard. Dashboard uses the WSDL link to get data that works on SOAP (that works on exchanging web structures).
    2. Using Live Office Connection: With the help of Live Office one can connect the WebI reports directly. One can take advantage of the scheduled instances of the WebI reports. So it is good for time consuming reports.
    3. Using BI Web Services: Here custom web services are created of intended report instances. Publication is done from CMS side.
    after that WSDL is used as any other web services.
    Get back if you need any further clarification.

  • Creating Web Services with JDeveloper9i

    I am creating web services from EJB's that are presently on our Oracle9iAS application server so that we can use a different front end tool, other than Java to create the GUI interfaces.
    The problem is I cannot creat a Web Service from the EJB when my methods return or take Objects as parameters. Is it possible in JDeveloper9i to do this or do I have to create the bean mappings and Wsdl file myself? Or is it just because the version JDeveloper is not quite the final production release and this feature will be included in the new release of JDeveloper9i?
    Thank you and I hope someone could help me!

    One solution to this problem is to make sure that the complex type you are using in yous service interface do implement the JAVA Bean as per the spec (at least Oracle's interpretation of it).
    You need to have getter/setter for all members and you need to have an empty ctor() to create new instances of your objects. In some cases, the design time let you get by, but the runtime fails in the code generation.
    In your case, the 'Task' class may have some issue.

  • Pages: create pdf documents with hyperlinks to web pdf files

    Hi everybody,
    I've created a pdf file with Pages, it contains a number of hyperlinks some of them work and the others don't.
    The ones that works are linked to an html page, and those non working are linked to pdf documents on the net (still beginning with http:// but ending with .pdf).
    I don't know ho to solve this because Pages automatically create hyperlinks and the only options available are email, pages document, web page and bookmarks.
    Any suggestion?
    Thx

    Hi Jeff and thanks for the reply,
    the links work perfectly in the pages document but one I've exported it in pdf some of them don't work anymore.
    I don't see any difference in the url structure of the pdf links, they are copied ant pasted from the url box of the browser.
    Here's one of the link that don't work
    http://www.enpap.it/documenti/elezioni1317/NOTAI_COLLEGIO3_SUD_E_ISOLE.pdf
    Could the problem has something to do with the underscores or capital letters? It would seem strange but I don't know what's going on.

  • How do I create web forms with updateable mock up graphics?

    I am interested in creating both web forms and pdfs that are able to update a mock up image, similar to those found on sites like zazzle and society6. The user enters text, picks a color, uploads an image, etc. and the mock up image is updated for them to review and ultimately submit for purchase. Can this be achieved without coding (in Muse perhaps), or with a minimum of coding knowledge? I assume it would be a process using several pieces of adobe software, I just don't know which ones or where to start looking for tutorials specific to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I would start with Muse. If you have more experience with coding, using Dreamweaver. InDesign is not appropriate for what you're trying to do.

  • How to create web items with different quantities?

    Hi,
    I have B1 inventory items that are single items but we will be selling them on the web as 'packages' of different quantities.  For example, we would like the user to be able to select the web item, then be presented with a drop down (attribute) of case (10 items), 1/2 pallet (80 items) or full pallet (160 items).  Is it possible to setup a product line master which is a B1 inventory item, then define the child items, non B1 items, and somehow have the proper quantities ordered?  (ie. ordering 2 cases creates a B1 order for our parent item with a quantity of 20)
    If I can do this, I have another concern.  Since we are currently using our test database, if I setup all of these child items and create the parent/child relationships, will these be lost once we swtich the database over to our live/production database?
    Thanks,
    David

    Personally, I would add the javascript to the Item's description with additional drop downs there, upon selecting the drop down, this would populate the QTY field which i would hide via javascript as well, but will be passed on to the Cart/checkout page.

  • Some questions about creating web animations with lighter data and exporting to vector Flash format.

    Hi, I will be creating animations in After Effects mostly using Illustrator vector files and will be exporting to SWF or XFL for using the animations on the web.
    One of the priorities is light data as possible to provide viewers with slower connections with better experience. However the animation should also impress and I need to find a balance between performance and possible imagery.  The animations may have sound and voice narrative.
    I need help with understanding which type of non-vector data is heavier than others. Non-vector image data or sound and voice? And from non-vector image data is some of it lighter or heavier than other - for example motion blur vs smooth gradient vs many colors?
    I would greatly appreciate any suggestions, tips, pointers, etc.,

    Let's do a little "Myth Busters" on that one, shall we?
    Vector data is per se not "lighter" than pixel data. You could have complex paths for which storing the information of the individual nodes takes up more space than a pixel image of the object.
    Dynamic rasterization of vector data costs CPU performance and may in effect make things more slow than just playing a series of pixel images. That would apply to anything from path strokes to gradients.
    All your pretty AI vectors don't mean anything if they are constructed in such a way that either AE or Flash need to rasterize them on import. Anything from converting Bezier paths to paths consisting of dense linear segments to converting fills, patterns, gradient meshes and so on to pixel data
    Pixels are pixels. It does not matter whether they are gradients, mothionblur or just non-antialiased shapes. Flash doesn't care and neither image format that may be used in Flash stores any more or less info. They only differ in their methods, but in the end it's for you to decide whether you use JPEG, PNG8 or PNG24. They all have their pros and cons.
    It makes a difference, if data is embedded in an SWF or if it is externally linked just as it makes a difference whether you enforce audio sync or not, playing every frame or not.
    So for all intends and purposes, it's still up to you to make up your own mind and find the best solution. And Rick has a point - if you're really that concerned about efficiency, then do it in Flash or Flash Catalyst and consider the options there that may help like GPU accelerated layer styles for drop shadows etc., dynamic text or your vector data remaining vector in teh first place.
